Generation: 3

  1. 4.  Samuel Slocum was born 9 Sep 1711 (son of Samuel Slocum and Hannah Carr); died Abt Feb 1775, Jamestown, RI.

    Notes:

    Exeter Land Evidence:
    In 1741 Samuel Slocum of Jamestown and Ann his wife deeded two pieces of land to his "infant" brother Peleg of North Kingstown, one piece to brother Moses, and one piece to brother John. Probably "infant" means minor; otherwise, his father must have had a younger second wife. In any case, Peleg would have been born prior to 18 June 1741.

    In 1753 Samuel Slocum of Jamestown, yeoman, and Hannah his wife sold two tracts of land to "John Raynolds."

    From the location and content of these two items of land evidence, these two Samuels appear to be the same individual, although possibly the second deed could pertain to his parents, also Samuel & Hannah. I do not know when they died.

    Samuel's will dated 16 January 1775 (if it is indeed his will) says he is "aged." It mentions no wife, but mentions a deceased brother Benjamin Slocum (according to a transcript of the will in the RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 3 No. 3 p. 250). This is confusing because no genealogies I have consulted list a sibling Benjamin for this Samuel. However, I have added him (see note at Benjamin).

    The will also mentions Samuel's children as follows: Samuel, Jr., of Jamestown; William, of Newport; Peleg; Abel; Sarah (Anrick?); Penelope; and Rhoda.

    Samuel married Hannah Franklin 27 Nov 1746. Hannah (daughter of Abel Franklin and Sarah Remington) was born 15 Dec 1717, Jamestown, RI; died Aft 4 Oct 1757. [Group Sheet]


  2. 5.  Hannah Franklin was born 15 Dec 1717, Jamestown, RI (daughter of Abel Franklin and Sarah Remington); died Aft 4 Oct 1757.

    Notes:

    She may have married first to Benaiah Bill on 4 June 1740 at Jamestown.

    Children:
    1. Hannah Slocum was born 21 Dec 1747.
    2. 2. Peleg Slocum, Sr. was born Between 1749 and 1750; died 17 Mar 1830, South Kingstown, RI.
    3. Sarah Slocum was born 11 Mar 1751/52.
    4. Penelope Slocum was born 20 Apr 1754.
    5. Rhoda Slocum was born 14 Apr 1756.
    6. Abel Slocum was born 13 Oct 1758.


Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Samuel Slocum was born 2 Mar 1683/84, Jamestown, RI (son of Ebenezer SLOCUM and Mary THURSTON); died Bef 1748.

    Notes:

    According to his father's will, Samuel was the eldest son, and had received land in Scituate.

    Only two of Samuel's children, Ebenezer & Mary, were mentioned in the 1729 will of Samuel's mother, Mary (Thurston) Slocum.

    Some online genealogies include two other children for Samuel: William & Maria.

    Samuel married Hannah Carr Bef 22 Dec 1711. Hannah (daughter of Edward Carr and Hannah Stanton) was born 13 Oct 1691. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Hannah Carr was born 13 Oct 1691 (daughter of Edward Carr and Hannah Stanton).

    Notes:

    Edward Carr's will of 22 Dec 1711 mentions his daughter, Hannah Slocum. I am making an educated guess that her husband was Samuel, who had a wife named Hannah. They were both from Jamestown, in the right time frame. Other online genealogies agree with this conclusion.

    Children:

    2. 4. Samuel Slocum was born 9 Sep 1711; died Abt Feb 1775, Jamestown, RI.
